Temporal Variability of Soil Carbon and Nitrogen in Cotton Production on the Texas High Plains
Abstract
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a key indicator of soil health as it is important in essential soil functions related to nutrient cycling and soil productivity. Although, it can take several decades to increase SOC in semi‐arid ecoregions, it is possible that the low organic matter background in sandy soils typical of semi‐arid soils may show greater fluctuations compared to soils from other regions. This study was conducted to evaluate the temporal C and N dynamics of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) cropping systems in a semi‐arid region. The effects of no‐tillage (NT) and cover crop use on SOC, potassium permanganate oxidizable carbon (POXC), inorganic nitrogen (Nᵢₙₒᵣg), and microbial respiration were investigated in a long‐term study (∼19 yr) at Lamesa, TX, comparing conventional tillage (CT), winter fallow, to no‐tillage rye cover (R‐NT), and no‐tillage mixed species cover (M‐NT) on an Amarillo fine sandy loam. Results showed SOC and POXC were greatest during periods of active cover crop and cotton root growth. Soil organic C and POXC were significantly correlated (R² = 0.75; p < 0.0001), but poorly correlated to microbial respiration (R² = 0.41, p = 0.0001; and R² = 0.02, p = 0.8781, respectively). Conservation management practices did not impact Nᵢₙₒᵣg. Soil organic C and POXC levels were more variable than previously reported and responded to active root growth in this semi‐arid, sandy soil. Core Ideas Soil organic C and K permanganate oxidizable C were more temporally var…

“POXC and microbial respiration are both indicators of putatively microbially accessible C (Burke et al., 2019; Culman et al., 2012; Hurisso et al., 2016) and may help illuminate the early plant-soil-microbial C dynamics in these systems.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
